New Projects Ahead!

Life is going well for Rachel Dratch, despite what a recent article said about her being “unemployed”. Not true, she says. Just that she wasn’t doing much at the moment. But that’s all changed!

She’s in Los Angeles right now, to shoot a pilot! I will have more information on that, as soon as it becomes available to me.

She has also been asked to appear again on the Craig Ferguson show! Date to be announced as soon as I find out more.

Last, but definitely not least, she has been cast in “Scramble“, from July 8th to July 26th, at the Westport Country Playhouse!

Saturday Night Live and In Person

The hottest ticket in NYC last night was for the Upright Citizens Brigade production of “Saturday Night Live”! Due to the Writer’s Strike, all television production has ceased on this and most all other shows, and most of the staff and crew have been laid off indefinitely.

So, if you were lucky to score a ticket (and most of humanity missed out, unless you were a friend or relative or insider), you got to see a LIVE theatrical version of SNL, hosted by Micheal Cera and starring all the present cast plus Horatio Sanz and Rachel Dratch! Rachel made an appearance as Debbie Downer, and the audience went wild!

Several blog posts and web articles have been written up, so you can read all the accounts..
